What We're Looking For

We are seeking a Senior Cloud Security Engineer to architect and operationalize Datavant's enterprise Edge Defense strategy within the Secure Product & Infrastructure program.

This role is accountable for defining long-term WAAP architecture, standardizing protection patterns across verticals, and ensuring scalable, automated coverage for all internet-facing workloads.

You will operate at a systems level and serve as a senior security partner to Engineering teams-shaping architectural direction, influencing roadmap decisions, and ensuring edge protection scales with the business.

We are looking for a true senior-level engineer who can own program-level outcomes, not just implement controls.

What You Will Do

• Define and evolve the enterprise Edge Defense architecture across cloud-native, CDN-layer, and hybrid environments.

• Lead cross-vertical rollout of standardized WAAP patterns, replacing fragmented or manually managed implementations with automated, enforceable models.

• Drive vendor evaluation, integration, and lifecycle governance for WAAP technologies.

• Establish infrastructure-as-code and policy-as-code frameworks that make secure edge protection the default path for Engineering teams.

• Partner deeply with Platform and Product Engineering during system design to prevent downstream security debt.

• Define and track program-level KPIs for edge protection, including coverage, enforcement maturity, drift reduction, onboarding velocity, and detection quality.

• Mentor and elevate other security engineers in edge and cloud security domains.

What You Need to Succeed

• Deep experience designing and operating WAAP or WAF controls at scale across multi-account and multi-environment deployments.

• Proven ability to architect security programs, including governance models, automation strategy, lifecycle management, and cross-team alignment.

• Strong infrastructure-as-code expertise and experience building reusable modules and guardrails adopted across teams.

• Demonstrated success serving as a trusted, customer-oriented security partner to Engineering leadership.

• Ability to influence without authority and navigate competing priorities across verticals.

• Strong operational instincts and experience designing for long-term maintainability and response integration.

• Comfort operating in regulated environments and designing controls that scale across commercial and compliance-constrained systems.

• Active use of AI-assisted development tools to accelerate infrastructure and security engineering work, with appropriate validation discipline.

What Helps You Stand Out

• You have architected or materially transformed a WAAP or edge protection program across multiple engineering verticals.

• You have led vendor migrations or platform consolidations in the edge protection space.

• You have authored Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that shaped long-term security architecture and influenced senior engineering leadership.

• You have defined measurable security KPIs that guided roadmap investment and engineering alignment.

• You are known for reducing architectural complexity while increasing automation, coverage, and engineering confidence.
